Join the 12-Minute Trucker Protest

Join the 12-Minute Trucker Protest I was at a gas station the other day and saw a flyer announcing a truckers’ protest starting this Monday at noon. It’s called #12NoonTruckStop on Twitter and makes a lot of sense. The idea is for all truckers to safely pull to the side of the road every day at 12 noon for 12 minutes in support of the Canadian truckers and their demand to an end to all mask and vaccine mandates.

FREEDOM, EH? Canada Leads the World

FREEDOM, EH? Canada Leads the WorldBREAKING: Saskatchewan Premier, responding to the Freedom Convoy, says it’s time to lift the mandates. In this week’s edition of The Remnant Underground, Michael J. Matt covers the Freedom Convoy’s first press conference. Guess what? The truckers know all about Davos, the World Economic Forum, and The Great Reset. In fact, they say that’s what they’re fighting against.

China Controls Critical Supplies

Alan Dowd documents some problems with China in The American Legion Magazine of December 2020, and I liberally quote from the article. The COVID 19 pandemic has highlighted the adverse impact on the world attributable to China's domination of the production of medicines, personal protective equipment and other medical supplies. Prior to the pandemic China produced " 35.9 percent of America's antibiotics, 49.8 percent of our medical bandages, 71.7 percent of our facemasks and 77.2 percent of our plastic gloves. During the pandemic China " quietly managed to buy up much of the world's N95 masks. " China, a potential adversary, also controls the production of rare earth elements, which are used in the manufacture of a wide array of products, including " cell phones, televisions, vehicle engines, computers, lasers, industrial magnets, fiber-optics, and superconductors, and they are also used in our military hardware such as " F-35 aircraft and our M1A2 tank. " A number of friendly countries are working together to move the manufacture of critical supplies and elements away from China to facilities in Australia, Japan, South Korea, India, Europe and Latin America, but the U.S. cannot rely on foreign manufacturers for these critical products. We must speed up our manufacturing of these items in our country.

Jordan Peterson: Open the damn country back up, before Canadians wreck something we can’t fixThe country is growing more authoritarian in response to

Jordan PetersonI spent more than three hours on the phone this weekend trying to get through to the online security department of one of Canada’s major banks. One of my accounts was shut down (because I had the effrontery to sign in from Alberta — an event too unexpected for the bank’s security systems). I was placed on hold interminably, subjected all the while to the corporate world’s idea of music (to soothe me). I was then offered a call-back, which I duly received, 45 minutes later. Then I was placed on hold again, and again, and again. This all occurred after my patience had already been exhausted in the aftermath of trying to fly in Canada.

Disloyal Football Bowl Dropouts

As a Penn Stater, class of 1963, I was disappointed with six starting football players who dropped out of the recent Outback Bowl. Five were defensive starters, which crippled the Penn State defense. Coach Franklin said it was the worst bowl optout situation he has experienced. Happily, the Big Ten record in the bowls was 6 and 4. Players dropping out of bowl games for fear of being injured prior to the NFL draft is disconcerting. Injuries can occur anytime during their careers. Most of the players were on four year scholarships and committed to play the football seasons, which includes bowl games. The NCAA and athletic conferences have to address this problem because it demeans the significance of bowl games and compromises the spirit of college athletics. Michigan Heisman Trophy runner up Aidan Hutchinson summed why players should not opt out, stating ------- "we wouldn't leave our team out to dry ever just for all the work we've put in." Maybe NFL teams should question the loyalty of these bowl drop out players. Additionally, what about the college football coaches who took jobs with other schools and did not coach their previous teams in bowl games?

Futile fusion research

The ultimate source of energy in the universe is nuclear fusion. It powers the sun and the stars. To work, extremely high temperature and high-pressure gases – plasmas – are required. The stars hold their plasmas by gravity. On Earth, in an attempt to harness fusion for electric power production, magnetic fields are required to hold fusion plasmas. This is an extremely difficult task. Decades ago, a Russian magnetic field configuration – the tokamak – appeared promising. Countries built ever-larger tokamak experiments to develop this “magnetic bottle.”

They’re Getting Desperate! Let’s Keep Up the Pressure!

They’re Getting Desperate! Let’s Keep Up the Pressure!Saturday was both a great day and a very sad day. That’s the way things are unfolding, and very quickly, in Canada right now. The great part happened early in the day, when I was honoured to drive a tractor at the head of a Freedom Convoy that made its way from Tillsonburg to Norwich, Ontario, and was followed by a Freedom Rally. The line of vehicles stretched back behind me farther than anyone could see, and by the time we got to the site of the rally, thousands had gathered. The convoy was so long, when we reached Norwich, there were still 40 cars that hadn't started the journey 37 km away! A 37 km convoy is pretty cool! To see a glimpse of it, click here.

Made In Canada Drug sitting on shelves - fights Covid

Dear Sirs: CTV has posted a news item that infuriates me to NO end. A MADE IN CANADA drug that is already HC approved is sitting on shelves in pharmaceuticals across Canada, unused. The drug is bamlanivimab which must be administered by intravenous. Although that is less convenient that a ‘pill’ to ‘pop’, it is a drug being used around the world but not here in Canada. It is also a part of the drug cocktail that X-Pres Trump received that was part of his ‘amazing’ recovery.

Grace Life Church Must Be Crushed By Covidstan, Before It Inspires Others

Grace Life Church Must Be Crushed By Covidstan, Before It Inspires OthersCovidstan’s true intentions have been hiding in plain sight nearly the whole time, but our collective desire for a return to normal caused us to deny this reality and thus sound the alarm. Whatever percentage of this is really about public health concerns during a pandemic is dwarfed by the percentage of this that is not. Otherwise known as the statists’ two primary objectives in all things – power and control.

The impenetrable G. Gordon Liddy

Legendary talk-show host G. Gordon Liddy died recently at age 90. Remembered by some for his often misunderstood role in the Watergate affair, he lived a remarkable life, much of it shrouded forever in secrecy. What you may have seen in the media, heard on his show or read in his best-selling autobiography "WILL" comprise but a glimpse of his experiences, and even after a decade as his executive producer, sidekick and aide de camp, I am left with as many questions as answers.

Need to change rules in curling

Although the Mixed Doubles curling with only 2 players was not splashed all over the news, I found it quite interesting, although I still don’t quite understand all the rules involved. Having said that, I saw some amazing shots and VERY clever curling that required both skill of reading ice and sweeping.

Cardinal Thomas Collins says you "need to vaccine" it is "common sense" and an "act of charity!"

In comments after the Postcommunio in an empty St. Michael's Cathedral yesterday (begins at 54:00), Thomas Cardinal Collins said from the Cathedra that "we need to vaccinate the population" calling it "common sense" and an "act of charity." Not commenting on the recent suspension in much of Europe of the Astra-Zeneca gene therapy, Collins said that "it is a sign of hope" and that it is a "sensible way to get beyond" the virus, a virus that originated in a laboratory in communist China and was released accidentally or intentionally and has spread throughout the world causing illness, death and economic destruction. Collins mentioned nothing about the testing of these "vaccines" or in some cases the containment of fetal stem cells within it.

Catholic Message for the Feast of Saint Katharine Drexel

Feast of Saint Katharine DrexelDuring most of my life before entering religious life, I lived in a part of New Orleans that was conveniently located near several streetcar and bus lines. When we wanted to get to Audubon Park, a wonderful place of greenery with a lagoon, swimming pool, zoo, aquarium, rides for children, and plenty of place to play, we would take the Magazine Street streetcar. It cost 7 cents to ride all over town on the public transit system. That streetcar passed Xavier Prep School on its way uptown to the park. Then, when I went to high school, I took the Louisiana bus every morning and afternoon to get to and from Jesuit High School on South Carrollton Avenue. And that bus passed Xavier University. I was aware that those two schools were founded by a nun who was still alive in those days, but in retirement because of bad health, in Pennsylvania. Her name was Katharine Drexel, but she became “Mother Katharine” in religious life. She came from a very wealthy family in Philadelphia; her stepmother was a Bouvier, possibly related to Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy who later became first lady of our country.

What if Your Vaccine is Worse Than the Target Disease?

What if Your Vaccine is Worse Than the Target Disease?Salk Polio: Greetings and welcome to the fascinating and, sometimes appalling, world of viruses & vaccines. When the Salk Polio vaccine was produced there was discovered within SV 40 (Simian Virus 40), a cancer virus grown on monkey serum. Additionally, 39 other viral contaminants were discovered therein. These were not removed from vaccines due to financial, not health, reasons. So it's now apparent vaccines are quite dangerous, that naysayers are not crazy to be worried, and use of these can and do cause secondary illnesses to their recipients.

The Great COVID Con

The Great COVID ConThe stated purpose of Canada's COVID-19 campaign is to gain control of a coronavirus that is sickening some people with flu-like symptoms, and killing a relative few.  The apparent actual purpose of the campaign is to greatly restrict public rights and freedoms as a prelude to dismantling current society and 'building back better'. 1  To implement a 'Great Reset,' in other words. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau openly admits that.2

I think I know how Tiger Woods crashed, I almost did the same thing..rolled a vehicle recently

I think I know how Tiger Woods crashed,It was the “safety feature” called “evasive steering" that almost did me in. It yanks the steering wheel when it thinks it should. I think I know how Tiger Woods crashed, I almost did the same thing......I ALMOST rolled a vehicle recently. When I rented that new 2020, Chevy Tahoe to go to Florida. It had a safety feature that will TURN YOUR STEERING WHEEL against your will. I fought it for hours. I drove all the way from Ohio until it got dark and then I saw the light, and the button, to TURN IT OFF.
